Taco Be

be made the best tacos tonight! He brought the ingredients in separate containers for us to assemble at the Workshop; i was working late so this was a much appreciated meal - the offerings in Midtown, besides Korean food, are pretty terrible.

First he cooks a bag of Morningstar Crumbles (our favorite fake ground beef) with taco seasoning and some oil. He stirs the fake meat around until it's crumbly and dry. He heats up a can of vegetarian refried beans, shreds some cheddar cheese and chops up some lettuce and tomato. Lastly, we heat the shells in the oven to get them crisp. We usually like them slightly browned. If we have guacamole, that's great but usually we don't, so i finish off the tacos with hot sauce while be skips condiments.

I've realized that be and i have some specific official cooking duties. If a certain dish must be made, only one of us can do it. It's a rule that doesn't seem to be questioned.

be: tacos, quiche, pupusas, ravioli, croutons, pear dessert

me: broccoli, cornbread, collards/wild rice, vegetable soup, (sweet) potatoes, coffee

But there are some dishes that go both ways: mushroom pate, pasta, roasted vegetables, white rice, plantains
